Re:Set Top Boxes - I have spent a fair amount of time with a WebTV Plus we bought for my in-laws so that they could have email contact with their grandchildren plus internet access. They have it attached to their large screen tv and I have personally used it for quite a while. It ain't a pc. It ain't close. You get minimal email and minimal internet access. If you are used to PC versions of either email or web pages, you will easily strongly prefer the PC. Let alone all the other things that you can do with a PC. No one in their right mind will prefer an STB to a PC if the WebTV is a representative of the class. Am I missing something?
